suicide on white rose petals

By Asura

Suicide on white rose petals
Venal fire, like belief
That the dust that burning settles
Will bring silence and relief.

Free falling from pixel art
I lose myself in crescent dreams
In dreams where only you take part
A mere, distant memory that screams...

Forgetting and remembering in time
About the lust, the passion and our love,
I kill myself with white rose-like ideas
And hopefully i'll watch you from above..

    What a nice, small, painful piece. It's simple, but not dumb, and it feels honest in a way that enhances the melancholy. Great use of imagery, as well. Good poem.
